Emperor's Stand-in: My physique improves a little bit every day

"Your Majesty, are you not going to make deals with demons and monsters in the future?"

Hearing what Lu Changjing said, Jin Longyu was a little stunned.

Lu Changjing smiled bitterly and nodded: "Don't you know what happened with Cao Wenzhen? When he was doing business with demons and ghosts, his secrets had been leaked many times and he faced life-and-death crises several times."

"According to the information I have obtained from my investigation, this matter should have been discovered by the important officials of the pro-war faction, who deliberately opposed Cao Wenzhen. If it continues, how can I, the emperor, continue to work?"

"This... that's true." Jin Longyu looked distressed: "But there are really a lot of resources and treasures earned by doing business with demons and ghosts. If we can't do business, how can we help Tai Shang collect the divine objects?"

Lu Changjing whispered: "Just say that you can't find it, and the previous act of doing business with demons and ghosts was also my father's will. I can't do anything about it. Now I just take this opportunity to stop it, so as not to expose the matter, even I can't bear it."

"Okay, your majesty, I will listen to you." Jin Longyu hesitated for a moment, thinking of the three souls and seven spirits that were being controlled, and he decisively stood on Lu Changjing's side.

After all, if you don't listen to the emperor, at most you will be dismissed from the position of Minister of Revenue, but if you don't listen to the emperor, you may be killed.

All it takes is a slight pinch from the emperor, and a wisp of his soul will be destroyed along with him, which is much worse than being dismissed.

After giving Jin Longyu a warning and asking him to report the movements of the peace party from time to time, Lu Changjing let him leave.

When it comes to dealing with Cao Wen Zheng later, you can summon him. With the help of Jin Longyu and Cao Xiuyuan, the probability of taking Cao Wen Zheng down will increase dramatically.

Before leaving, you have to intercept the soul-protecting fruit, and at the same time let Jin Longyu conceal the matter from the emperor.

Jin Longyu naturally guessed that there might be something dirty between the emperor and the emperor, and he didn't dare to delve into it too much. He thought to himself that maybe it was because of whether to make a deal with demons and monsters that the two emperors had a conflict.

In addition, the lawless ministers Cao Wenzheng and Zhao Jintian, who were left by the emperor, dared to put the emperor under house arrest, which led to this situation.

Could it be that the emperor was also behind this matter? Otherwise, based on his understanding of Cao Wenzheng, he would not dare to do such a thing.

When he thought of this, Jin Longyu also felt a chill in his heart. He did not expect that the emperors of the two dynasties would also fight each other. It would be better not to intervene in this matter as much as possible in the future.

Otherwise, if you are not careful, you may end up in pieces. The struggle for imperial power is far more tragic than ordinary people can imagine.

So, after thinking about it, Jin Longyu did not doubt Lu Changjing's identity, let alone think that the emperor was an impostor.

And whose impostor emperor is so strong, it is much stronger than the previous Ning Zhongyu. He is not a fool. How could he let such a great master impersonate his identity? Isn't he afraid of taking away his throne?

With Jin Longyu, the soul-picking slave, Lu Changjing will be able to understand many major events of the peace talks in the future, and he can also quietly take away some resources and treasures from the treasury.

Although the treasury is empty now, it does not mean that it will be empty in the future. A large amount of taxes flow into the treasury every year. If he takes a little, Lu Changjing will be able to eat a full stomach.

It’s a pity that last year’s taxes have been handed over to the old emperor by Jin Longyu. Except for his own greed, there is basically nothing left.

This soul-protecting fruit was accidentally discovered by the masters sent by Jin Longyu to other dynasties. It was a bargain. The old emperor didn’t know it yet.

Otherwise, it would not have fallen into Lu Changjing’s hands. It was considered a layer of protection for his subsequent impact on the shackles of gods and demons.

He did not take away Jin Longyu’s flower fragrance god ring. He still expected Jin Longyu to send resources and treasures through the flower fragrance god ring in the future, so he let him wear it for the time being.

When it is no longer useful one day, kill this guy and take away all his resources and treasures.

Having killed so many common people over the years, and even selling them to demons and monsters, it would not be a pity for Jin Longyu to die ten or a hundred times.

With Jin Longyu, the soul-picking slave, Lu Changjing not only has his safety in the palace further guaranteed, but also has a certain voice and control in the court.

He is no longer a puppet emperor in the future, and can influence many things through Jin Longyu.

With a slight smile, Lu Changjing continued to practice, and the sixth soul-picking hook was about to be bred. After the bred is completed, it is time to consider taking down Cao Wenzheng.

Cao Wenzheng knows the current situation of the little emperor Ning Zhongyu best. If he can take down the little emperor Ning Zhongyu in advance through him, it will be much easier to deal with the old emperor in the future.

Ning Zhongyu is just a mid-level master. Even if he has various trump cards, Lu Changjing is confident that he can take him down. After all, he has many trump cards.

Especially after taking down Jin Longyu, Lu Changjing got a lot of good things from his flower fragrance magic ring.

However, according to Jin Longyu's memory, although Ning Zhongyu was only a mid-level master, he had obtained a lot of good things over the years thanks to his status as an emperor, and his trump card was no less powerful than his and Cao Wenzheng's.

If you want to deal with Ning Zhongyu in the future, you still need to be careful to avoid capsizing.

As for the old emperor, it goes without saying that he is a much more terrifying existence than Ning Zhongyu.

But no matter what, Lu Changjing's cultivation speed far exceeds that of Ning Zhongyu and Ning Tianbao, and he has the trump card of the immortal demon body. As long as he is given enough time to develop, he will be able to take over the entire Great Ning Dynasty sooner or later and turn this place into his own territory.

After practicing hard for a few days, he finally waited for the visit of several concubines.

"Your Majesty, you have worked hard these days."

Accompanied by a cold but gentle voice, Zhou Ruolan also sneaked in from the small hole in the skylight, holding a food box full of thousand-year-old ginseng soup in his hand.

Wearing a light yellow cloud-smoke shirt, a white palace satin and snow-white silk cloud-shaped Qianshui skirt that drags on the ground, her hair is combed into a Hanyan Furong bun, her eyebrows are lightly brushed, and her face is covered with light powder, which is bright and beautiful.

Concubine Yi doesn't come often, even less than Xiao Yaoxin, so Lu Changjing misses her quite a lot.

So when he saw Zhou Ruolan, he immediately came over, took the food box, picked up Zhou Ruolan, and strode towards the closed-door secret room behind.

This made Zhou Ruolan's pretty face immediately blush, no longer as cold as before, but she did not struggle, leaning obediently in Lu Changjing's arms and came to the closed-door secret room.

"Why didn't my beloved concubine bring some spiritual fruits? Don't you want to continue tasting the taste of imported spiritual fruits?"

"My beloved concubine doesn't want to, but I want to taste your imported spiritual fruits. I happen to have a lot of stock here."

"My beloved concubine's imported spiritual fruits are still sweet and delicious."
